A signature #Hungarian food to try when visiting #Hungary:
lángos (laan-gosh)

Deep-fried bread dough, often eaten with any combination of garlic, sourcream & cheese


(Not for the #health conscious, but I'd also have it occasionally)

Der sozialdemokratische kroatische Präsident Zoran #Milanović wird mir immer symphatischer. Nachdem Ungarns kleiner Führer #Orban vor wenigen Tagen Auf Landkarten und Gedenktafeln Teile Kroatiens beanspruchte sagte Milanović: ...
"Wir wissen, wer Orban ist und was er befürwortet, das ist nicht gut! ... Zum Glück ist es kein großes und mächtiges Land"

#Milanović #Orban #Trianon #Kroatien #Ungarn
"Wie Plenković (Premier #Kroatien) hat er (Orban) auch mir versichert, daß alles in Ordnung ist. Aber wenn jemand Dich einmal betrügt, ist es seine Schuld, aber wenn er Dich ein zweites Mal reinlegt, bist du ein Dummkopf."

Viktor #Orban hielt zum 100.Jahrestag von #Trianon eine Rede. Ein Fallstudie in rechtsextremer Geschichtspolitik und Revisionismus.

Ein Thread
#Trianon ist so zentral für die ungarische Geschichtspolitik, und in dieser Rede, dass Orban die gesamte ungarische Geschichte in "Trianons" vermisst - ein Jahrhundert ist bei ihm ein Trianon. Image
Das Bild der opferbereiten Frau, die natürlich immer Mutter ist, ist ein altbekanntes rechtsextremes Motiv. Sie gebärt Soldaten und Krieger, die das Land gegen die immerwährende äußere Bedrohung verteidigen - dies das zentrale Motiv. Image

The treaty of #Trianon was singed 100 years ago today. It's one of the defining historical events for Hungarian identity and politics in the past century.

How Hungary commemorates the centenary?

The Peace Treaty of Trianon (1920) affirmed the loss of 2/3 of Hungary’s territory. Hungary, part of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, lost the I world war. Detached lands were inhabited mainly by other nationalities, but more than 3m Hungarians remained outside new borders too.

Hungary’s approach to consequences of Trianon varied in the past 100yrs:
➡️territorial revisionism in the interwar period
➡️forced acceptance in communist period
➡️renouncing territorial claims and supporting Hungarian minorities since 1989

THREAD. With the 100th anniversary or the Treaty of Trianon upon us, here's my ten forints on the subject, if you have nothing better to read, about whether Hungary was hard done by, what’s myth and what’s fact, and minority rights. It will probably make me enemies on all sides.
And what qualifies me, a foreigner, to talk about it? Well, I spent 3 years spent in Hungary hearing about it constantly, 1 year in Slovakia, where about 10% are ethnic Hungarians, and 6 years in Ukraine, which also has a small Hungarian minority. But anyway... #Trianon
These are various thoughts on it rather than a complete history, but some points of interest and things worth thinking about. If you disagree with any or all, you’re very welcome, but if you want me to respond you need to cite *evidence*. #Trianon
